This charming, three-bedroom barn conversion occupies an elevated position overlooking the Umborne Valley and is close to the pretty village of Wilmington.
The dwelling is one of five properties in this select development of barn conversions, located in a rural setting within the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Beautifully presented and refurbished by the current owner, the stone barn was converted in the late 1980s forming this attached cottage which is packed with much charm and character. Set in the grounds of a Grade II listed farmhouse the barn is therefore within the curtilage.
Inside, the barn is presented to a high standard throughout and has a cosy and welcoming feel to it. Beyond the entrance hall, there is a large living space with a pleasant open-plan layout and warmed by a lovely wood-burning stove. Large picture windows show off the splendid views of the countryside beyond. The kitchen has a country-cottage look to it with pale green, shaker-style units under timber worktops, and there is ample space for appliances. From here, a few steps lead up to a well-proportioned dining room that would work equally well as a home office.
On the first floor, there are three bedrooms and a recently updated family bathroom.
Outside, steps lead up to the garden which is flanked by post and railing fencing and to the barn where there is a large patio area with incredible views of the surrounding countryside.
On the approach to Higher Watchcombe farm, there is a gravel driveway, an open five-bar gate and a large private stone parking area by the grey shed.
